Betting into a Dry Side Pot

Jordan Smith opened the pot with a raise to 65,000 from the hijack before Tony Gargano called from the button. Then Bobby Firestone moved all in for 106,000 from the big blind, a raise that both his opponents called.

The flop came {4-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {J-Spades} before Smith checked. Gargano then bet 190,000 into the dry side pot, enough to get Smith to fold.

'I guess I need a ten' says Firestone as he shows {J-?} {10-?}.

He's ahead though as Gargano shows {8-?} {8-?}.
The turn comes {10-Spades} and river {2-Clubs} confirms the triple up to 330,000 for Firestone.

Gargano down to 490,000.
